ELECTRIC motorcycle manufacturer Brammo has just revealed their latest contribution to zero-emission riding: the Empulse.

The new naked, which can propel riders to an emission-friendly 100mph, is available in three different guises: 6.0, 8.0 and the 10.0.

The digits refer to each bike's range: 60 miles, 80 and a whopping 100 miles from the 10.0 from a full charge.

The Empulse 6.0 will cost $9,995 (£6500) the 8.0 $11,995 (£8100) and the 10.0 is to retail at $13,995 (£9,100) when they go on sale later this year.

UK pricing and availability is TBA.

Great looking, quiet and zero emissions.  They should be able to sell a ton of these.

Mr. Brammofan
"And one of them will top 100mph" Actually, all three bikes will be capable of <100mph.  The only difference is the storage capacity of the batteries on board, thus the effective range.

How much are the batteries?  How easy will it be to upgrade to more efficient ones in the future? How long to charge? Can we have belt drive instead of chain?  What will the insurance be like? Have they made any other improvements to the bike technology?  Does it have electronic suspension control?

What a great article, so informative.
